A FRIEND OF MINE
SHE CRIES AT NIGHT
AND SHE CALLS ME
ON THE PHONE
SEES BABIES
EVERYWHERE
SHE GOES AND
SHE WANTS ONE
OF HER OWN
SHE'S WAITED LONG
ENOUGH SHE SAYS
AND STILL HE CAN'T
DECIDE
PRETTY SOON SHE'LL
HAVE TO CHOOSE
AND IT TEARS HER UP
INSIDE SHE'S SCARED
SCARED TO RUN
OUT OF TIME
I SEE MY FOLKS
A-GETTING OLD
AND I WATCH THEIR
BODIES CHANGE
I KNOW THEY SEE
THE SAME IN ME
AND IT MAKES US BOTH
FEEL STRANGE
NO MATTER HOW YOU
TELL YOURSELF
IT'S WHAT WE ALL
GO THROUGH
THOSE LINES ARE
PRETTY HARD TO TAKE
WHEN THEY'RE STARING
BACK AT YOU OH OH OH
SCARED TO RUN
OUT OF TIME
WHEN DID THE CHOICES
GET SO HARD
WITH SO MUCH MORE
AT STAKE
LIFE GETS MIGHTY
PRECIOUS WHEN
THERE'S LESS OF IT
TO WASTE
MM MM MM MM
SCARED TO RUN
OUT OF TIME
JUST WHEN I THOUGHT
I'D HAD ENOUGH
AND ALL MY TEARS
WERE SHED
NO PROMISE LEFT
UNBROKEN
THERE WERE NO
PAINFUL WORDS UNSAID
YOU CAME ALONG AND
SHOWED ME
I COULD LEAVE IT ALL
BEHIND
YOU OPENED UP
MY HEART AGAIN
AND THEN MUCH TO
MY SURPRISE
I FOUND A LOVE BABY
LOVE IN THE NICK OF TIME
I FOUND A LOVE DARLIN'
LOVE IN THE NICK OF TIME
I FOUND LOVE BABY
LOVE IN THE NICK OF TIME
OOH OOH OOH
YEAH BABY
OOH OOH OOH
FOUND A LOVE
IN THE NICK OF TIME
THOUGHT I'D GIVEN UP
GIVEN UP BABY
